BY RALPH ICEF,LEE. , • - "fhe'cattle:men'of 13tighton have often to. wait a halt-hour for the horse cars which take them \out of Boston. They wait at what is InoWn as the " Cambridge Car Of fice." They lit ve a ruddy, bovine look, as a general thing; but you will be surest to know them by , a , yak they have of chewing their cud—a singl straw, with which they also pick their teet ,at inter/ills. Theirs is a species of Yankee\dialect cosmopolitan ;zed by travel on stokk trains, and refined by, emrplAt,stang. 'l,t;:was not 80,1 very long ago that one of theSe'fellpws caused me to miss the Cambridge car !Sy, getting me inter ested in a story he was tellmg to a friend, wi l l - ) likewise seemed ..to hen the cattle bu siness. "Ye had," said my,ittorY-teller, "at great scard tip` to fihirlEshire ilother night.; we seen a ghost!" Then the dr6e.r paused, thrust his broad-inhumed felt hat on the back of his head, shifted the stram4rom one corner of Ida mouth to the other, \gtroked his ling whiskers, and bent his tnerrf4iright eyes inquiringly-ufinn. the face- of his \com panion—just as if they-had begun a 'bar- , rain" over a half-dozen-steers: This was qff course only a bid for his friend's curiosity.. " Seen a ghost?" asked his friend. And thus the preliminary bargain being \ struck,, the drover shifted the straw back to ihe other side of his month cnco more, and continued: "Yee, sit'ee, a ghost, all in white, goite about on all fours like a night' lion, seein' who he could devour, withi a deuce of a noise. The hull of Shirkshire watt roused as one man, an' specially the women. 'The 'banal thing 'peered to take a pat ticlar spite agin eattle, for it chased cow I,ellerin' down the huU length the !age street. The cow raised its tail in the 14onlight, an' run tnore'n two mile. Wall, it kicked up at deal 01 a fuss round in them Did I ever tell yott , of tad Detteorritans it.)lll?' NV till, re:won Itattislientl ife about the meanest folks we've got up o Shirkshire. They're always got their no .es in eN elybody else's business, an' the all tiredest, pesky liars anywhere. Now - it x‘ as about their house this 'yete ghost was fast seen. Fact is, Jim Gilson and sonic other jokers got the hull thing up. Better`o two weekS ago, when the hull village was sound asleep, Jim and the boys takes the deacon's cult away from his cow, an' goes to MrS. Deacon's close line and Bits one of the Ilea cou's shirts and a pair of drawers from it. Then they drawed the shirt over the fore Iris and the drawees over the hind legit of the calf, cuttin' off its tail from sight for the time lappin' the two garments over cacti other, and tyin"cm round the call's middle with a piece of surcingle. Then they took and put the calf quiet-like, and not liurtin' of him, in the deacon's kitchen. cour:,e, the calf begin prontenadin' up l a down the kitchen, upsettin' of the milk pans and gettin contused with the grid ii ens and sich. This kinder stirred up Mrs. Deacon, and the deacon, too, and they was both powerful seal t. Mts. Deacon thought the deacon had better go down an' see what was in the kitchen. The deacon didn't They both listened awhile, an' the Maus an' gridirens rattled louder'n ever.— flie deacon., very narvous-like, said he did n't eale'late there was anything there, but it his wife felt anxious about her milk pans, ME she'd better go clown an' look niter 'em.— Then there came a ►uwbliu' an' a clatter that souihled like the :Aovo had started itp to visit 'gin; tut' g,ot lazy atf;rolled dowti the stairs !iglu.: Mr. 4. Deacon,' a tremblin' till over,said‘she ',posed the -noise Weren't in the hotise at all,-hut a shutter had got loose onto the front stoop, an' she guessed the &aeon ought to go down an' fix it. " the kind of folks these is," con tinued the drov . M . ; " that's the way they lie even to theirselves. You ought to see 'em -kin an average character. - Why, I wouldn't take a el anmon saint at the price of his hide and taller after he'd went through their daughter house! It's by siftin' their lies about one another, 3 c see, that we afterward got all the circumstances how scart they was " At this point the arrival of two cars 00 the heels of:-each oilier absoihed the atten tion of both drovers, unit they became sep arated in the crowd. - This evOt also had the eitCet of bringing my thoughts away t ant Shit [(shim just in time to see the cat I should have taken disappealing around a distant corner. There was, I am ashamed to*say, a good deal of curiosity mixed with my vexation; and I resolved now to have the rest of the story,, if I had to Wait, the .Nsholit'afternoon for it. I wtis fol— lowing the s'arnster NN ith my eye as he lounged in the thick of the hurrying passe gers, I was accosted by a gentleman in r,i ther shabby black alike, and in tot exceed ipgly• dishevelled beaver hat. 1 knew he Was a gentleman by his manner, and espe- Cially by his speech. ';' Excuse me, sir," he said, with altogether trio much beer in his voice; " excuse me, sir, I ant a rich man's son t o padf; but. could you_ letine have six cents to ride oft the East Cambridge cats? Who could resist the subtle flattery ut elate appeal? It was certainly worth the six wits, - and that just what it cost me. Rid of him, I looked about 'for my story-teller again He, having satisfied himself that the Brighton car would not be along for tt:n or fifteen minutes more, had loafed back «I the cut b stone Here be reversed the straw in his mouth, and had begun to make up tor the interruption his story had been to his chewing. He did not look about for hid companion; he seemed shrewdly sure tlwit his companion would look about for hint His apparent confidence in the. power of his absurd yarn was not-misplaced, forthe oth er cattle-man soon 'Made his way to the curb stone, and said: Wall, the deacon an' his wife was platy start, was they?" " You're right they was, an' they'd have lay there-an lied at each other all night if they dared, butoltcy didn't. Ye see, they t et a aft-cacti that their_s_Ulve would e4inie au' call on 'em anyhow, for it now made a • worse attempt than-ever. This time, t when it ' . peared to ('Range its Mind an' roll down stairs tight, it 'peered to be jived by the company of the gridireo an' the hull in te family of milk pans, big and little, carryin'. a thuiren apiece. So Mrs. Peacon got up and lit n taller candle, an' pulled' the deacon out of bed, an!:-pushed him toward ‘ .the. , head of the stairs. I.3ut they hadn't got over half way down before the deacon got a think movement
